Dear Sir:-
These lines will be handed to you by a Mr. Bernard E. Wolpert,--a young man who was born and raised in some Russian town, but who, with his parents, came to America about 2 12 years ago. Mr. Wolpert tells me that he devoted his younger years, while still in his native country, to talmudical studies, and that, besides other parts of the Talmud, he read and digested all of [Hebrew]. He also claims to be sufficiently advanced in English studies, &c., so as to be able to enter into one of our American High Schools.
Upon Mr. W.'s urgent request, I beg the liberty of introducing him to you and to ask for him your kind consideration.
Yours very respectfully
B. Felsenthal.
